Summary of Issue

Due to the revisions in the OOSC, some officers are forgetting to reference both the hub section and the brake section for contaminated linings.

Justification or Need

There should be cross reference notes to assist inspectors when references either OOS condition.

Request for Action

I am requesting a change to the North American Standard Out-of-Service Criteria (OOSC). Adding a notation in the brake section of the OOSC to direct inspectors to the hub section which references oil leaks. It should be noted that the hub section supercedes the 20% brake defect provision when the leak meets the description under hubs.
